Beautiful Studio Flat Near Kensington Palace
A studio is in a nice area next to Kensington Gardens, 7 minute walk to Kensington Palace. Although it is in basement of a Georgian house, there is enough light and when it is sunny outside, it is quite bright. It was completely re-done three years ago and has all the modern facilities, including Wi-Fi, washing and drying machines, dishwasher, etc. The studio’s size is approximately 27 square meters. There is a fully equipped kitchen with a fridge, a freezer, a kettle, a Nespresso coffee machine, cooking pans, cutlery and crockery. A separate bathroom has a shower. It is simple and modern. There is a Anglican church in front of the house and if you don't mind, you'll be woken up every morning by the church bells that start chiming at 8:45am and strike every 15 minutes until 10pm. The room has a King size bed with a memory foam mattress (180x200 cm that corresponds to 6'' bed). All the bedlinen and towels are included in the price. There are 3 underground stations around, all 5-7 minutes to walk to depending how quickly you walk. The nearest will be Bayswater, then Queensway and Notting Hill. Walking across the park, you'll find youself at the Royal Albert Hall and near Exhibition Road with 3 great museums: V&A, Science and Natural History. There is a bicycle rent stop next to my place and another one just at the entrance to the park, if you prefer to explore London by bike.

What a charming flat and what an ideal location! We so enjoyed our time in Bayswater. Elena was a superior host--warm, responsive, and accommodating. This really is an ideal option for a several-day stay in London.
Comfortable stay, wonderful location, loved the well kept garden, close to tube, buses, Kensington Palace Gardens, supermarkets, coffee shops, restaurants. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay again..
This was our third year staying in what we now call “our little basement apartment” in Bayswater!! We love staying here so much that we have booked an extended stay for 2027. The apartment is always immaculate, the bed is very comfortable and there is the added bonus of a washing machine and tumble drier. The apartment has a lovely well tended garden in front, and the road and general area are very quiet apart from the welcome tolling of the bell across the road at St Matthews during the day. Kensington Gardens is only 5 minutes walk away and both Bayswater and Queensway tube stations are close by. The stairs down to the apartment are a bit steep but we managed our luggage even though we are in our late 70’s. We have always been in close contact with our host Elena and she has always been attentive to our questions and made us feel most welcome.
We had a lovely stay in this little studio room. The location is wonderful - close to the park, easy to walk to many spots and very close to 3 main Tube lines. The room, bath and kitchen were clean and tidy. Elena was a gracious and responsive host.
We really enjoyed the location, which is set in a charming part of town with wonderful local shops, bakeries, and nearby parks. The courtyard area and the sound of the church bells added a unique and memorable touch to our stay.That said, during our visit the space felt quite stuffy, and the only way to cool it down was by opening windows that did not have screens. Additionally, the pillows on the bed felt worn and could use updating, especially considering the level of accommodations described.It’s also worth noting that the unit is in a basement and requires navigating fairly steep steps, which may not be ideal for everyone.Overall, a lovely setting with a lot of character, but a few comfort improvements would make the stay even better.
Well equipped, quiet and great location. We found the room very warm, particularly the kitchen area. Some instructions on how to turn the underfloor heating down or off would be welcome - but hope to stay again next year.
A very comfortable flat in a great location. Our host was very responsive and accommodating. Thanks for making our stay as pleasant as it was. If you had anything to do with the weather, thank you for that too!

Dear Anne, thank you for your kind words. We are very happy that you enjoyed your stay and hope to see you again in the future!
Elena sent us the instructions well before arrival and was available for problem solving throughout our stay. The apartment is good sized and equipped with everything you need. Access is via some basement stairs so those with physical disabilities would want to consider that (we are in our 70's and had no problems). The neighborhood, in Notting Hill, was wonderful and very accessible. We would definitely stay here again.
So glad we booked our reservation for this adorable flat. Convenient location to the underground, Kensington Palace and surrounding Park, with lots of food options readily available. Great pubs just around the corner!
The flat was a perfect location for what we needed for 3 days in London. It had great amenities and we would definitely stay here again when in London.
All in all the flat ended up being a really great place to stay and experience London! It was the perfect size for my wife and I, and the location was incredible. Always a tube ride away from everything, can’t ask for more!
Good location. Steps to the basement apartment are steep. Very clean. Pillows need replacing with better quality, as this is the only seating for reading and watching tv.
The location of the flat was perfect for all the things we wanted to do while in London. It had everything we needed and little touches like juice and milk in the fridge and snacks upon arrival. We definitely would stay here again on a future visit to London.
Brilliant apartment, perfect position near Kensington Gardens and museums in walking distance. The apartment was well equipped, a well tended garden was a buffer to the road noise, internet good and washing facilities were a bonus when travelling. This is our second stay in this apartment and we intend to book again in 2026 fir a perfect holiday!

Thank you very much, Lynne! It’s a pleasure to have you staying with us again! We are looking forward to seeing you again next summer!
Our stay was lovely. The location is perfect for walking, taking the tube or catching one of the tour buses. The space was lovely and just what we needed for our stay. I would absolutely stay again and recommend it to others .
